The IDF announces that its first infantry and tank units have entered the Gaza Strip.
The Times of Israel writes about it.
They will be clearing the territory and looking for hostages as part of so-called "localized raids".
"The units have found something that may help in the effort to locate the missing persons," said the military spokesperson.
The IDF claims that the troops also killed a number of "terrorists" in the area, including a Hamas cell that launched anti-tank guided missiles at Israel.
